Finally !!!!! A baby boy...

And so at last we welcome Tryfan Buckner Lewis to our family! The name Tryfan (pronounced "TRUH-van") is the name of Rhodri's favorite mountain in Wales and the middle name Buckner is a family name on my side.Tryfan was born at 08:49 on 19 October 2007, weighed 3.73 kg (8 lbs, 3 oz) and was 51 cm (20.5 inches) long.The birth center "Føderiket" (translates to "the kingdom of birth") where Tryfan was born in downtown Oslo. The entrance is on the right and the curved brick turret is the main lounging room. The room he was born in is not shown.
Rhiannon was really curious and excited about him when we got home at 6:30pm last night!
Although not visible here, Rhiannon is smiling really big here and saying "Baby!". She was so gentle when she was touching him here.
More details later, but I am thrilled to say that my Mom and sister were able to change their flights so that they could meet Tryfan and spend one more night with us before heading home. It was a very close call though! Full story next time...
